- This morning at the Illumina Genomics Forum, we unveiled our fastest, most cost-efficient sequencing machine yet – the NovaSeq X series. This technology will slash the cost to $200 per human genome and provide a readout at twice the speed. @WIRED feature:
- We’re seeing double over at our Illumina Centre in Cambridge! 🌈 Thanks to our employee Hayley for this impressive shot 📸
- Congratulations to Professors Balasubramanian and Klenerman’s award of the Millennium Technology Prize #MIF2021 for developing sequencing by synthesis (SBS) technology in the ‘90s which became the foundation of all Illumina sequencing instruments.

- Illumina to acquire @PacBio, broadening access to long-read sequencing and accelerating scientific discovery
- Genomics is helping solve some of the most challenging problems of humankind and inspiring new hope for people around the world. Yet, a new survey finds many are unaware of DNA's power to improve lives. #DNADay19 #NationalDNADay
- Looking back at 2020, it’s impossible to not talk about #COVID19. The teams at @Moderna_tx & @Pfizer worked tirelessly to find a breakthrough with mRNA vaccines and are showcasing the importance of work in genomics. Read more: bddy.me/3rlARS8
- Get you a researcher who looks at you the way Aino looks at flow cells! 😍 We’d love to thank Aino for being part of our community and sharing what a day in her life of genomics looks like. Happy #sequencing! @helsinkiuni @FIMM_UH
- The @uk_biobank has announced the world’s most detailed whole genome database. In it, the genetic code of 500K volunteers will be sequenced by @sangerinstitute and @decodegenetics using Illumina’s NovaSeq system.
- What do you learn when you sequence #DNA from 442 ancient bone fragments? For one thing, it’s that the Vikings weren’t blond. bddy.me/337oW0j
- We are excited to announce our agreement to acquire @GRAILbio, the company detecting cancer early with a simple blood test. Beating cancer begins with finding it. Together we are poised to transform cancer detection. illumina.com/company/news-c…
- We’re committing US $60M in #sequencing capabilities to a global pathogen genomics initiative, in partnership with @GatesFoundation and others, to strengthen #publichealth systems in areas of need. illumina.com/company/news-c…
- We will reach the $100 genome. #TweetItIntoExistence
